After thelast autoupdate, every time i press "play" in the launcher, the login screen that opens is completely black, no username/password controls, and no background. Anyone else experiencing this ?

How long do you wait for the login screen to appear? I myself have experienced hardware and local network lag that has caused wait times of up to 60 seconds before the login screen appears.

You might want to try running the repair tool before going to that trouble.

Well I'm glad it's working on at least one of your machines Big smile Good luck with the repair tool, and if you have any more issues, just come back here, I'll keep an eye on this thread for a while.

Thank you. Repair did nothing in itself ( nothing showing it was running ) but next time eve downloaded the repatch again and now its working, the only issue is that it lost all the settings ( account names, start configuration - it starts in stations environment, stuff like that ). Nothing serious, just weird.

If per chance you collected a log for the repair tool, you may wish to file it, along with a description of the problem, as a bug report for our Bug Hunting team to look at. I am glad that the issue seems to have been resolved though Cool
